Abstract

"Kold, mork og beskidt, prAeget af overtro og brutalitet. Faktisk lige til historiens modding. Sadan tAenker vi tit pa middelalderen. Men den lagde ifolge Jorgen Moller, professor i statskundskab ved Aarhus Universitet, brostenene til nutidens Europa. For uden periodens genstridige adelsmAend, magtbegAerlige paver og griske kobmAend ville demokratier, retsstater og frie markedsokonomier aldrig have set dagens lys i Europa. Og Europa ville ikke vAere en mirakulos undtagelse fra historiens regel om korruption, elendighed og diktatur. Men nok bare en by i Rusland."--

Abstract

Generations of social scientists and historians have argued that the escape from empire and consequent fragmentation of power-across and within polities-was a necessary condition for the European development of the modern territorial state, modern representative democracy, and modern levels of prosperity. This book inserts the Catholic Church as the main engine of this persistent international and domestic power pluralism, which has moulded European state formation for almost a millennium. It argues that the 'crisis of church and state' that began in the second half of the eleventh century fundamentally reshaped European patterns of state formation and regime change. It did so by doing away with the norm in historical societies-sacral monarchy-and by consolidating the two great balancing acts European state-builders have been engaged in since the eleventh century: against strong social groups and against each other. The book traces the roots of this crisis to a large-scale breakdown of public authority in the Latin West, which began in the ninth century, and which at one and the same time incentivized and permitted a religious reform movement to radically transform the Catholic Church in the period from the late tenth century onwards. Drawing on a unique dataset of towns, parliaments, and ecclesiastical institutions such as bishoprics and monasteries, the book documents how this church reform movement was crucial for the development and spread of self-government (the internal balancing act) and the weakening of the Holy Roman Empire (the external balancing act) in the period AD 1000-1500.
